Important Safety and Product Information
Warnings
Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous
situations could result in an accident or collision
resulting in death or serious injury.
• When using your laptop in a vehicle, place the
laptop securely so it does not obstruct the driver’s
view of the road or interfere with vehicle operating
controls, such as the steering wheel, foot pedals,
or transmission levers. Do not place in front of or
above any airbag.
• When navigating, carefully compare information
displayed on your laptop to all available navigation
sources, including information from street signs,
visual sightings, and maps. For safety, always
resolve any discrepancies or questions before
continuing navigation and defer to posted road signs.
NOTICE REGARDING WINDSHIELD
MOUNTING LEGAL RESTRICTIONS: State
law in Minnesota and California prohibits or restricts
drivers from using suction mounts on their windshields
while operating motor vehicles. (See California Vehicle
Code 26708(a); Minnesota Statutes Section 169.71)
Other Garmin dashboard or friction mount options
should be used when driving in those states. Many
other states have enacted restrictions against placing
“non-transparent material” upon the windshield or
placing objects upon the windshield that obstruct the
driver’s vision (for example, New Jersey law currently
prohibits windshield objects that “unduly interfere” with
the driver’s vision to the front or sides). Check your
state and local laws and ordinances where you drive
before using the suction cup mount on your windshield.

responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that

• Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Do
not become distracted by your laptop while driving,
and always be fully aware of all driving conditions.
Minimize the amount of time spent viewing your
laptop’s screen while driving and use voice prompts
when possible. Do not input destinations, change
settings, or access any functions requiring prolonged
use of your laptop’s controls while driving. Pull over
in a safe and legal manner before attempting such
operations.
• The navigation software is designed to provide route
suggestions. It is not designed to replace the need for
driver attentiveness regarding road closures or road
conditions, traffic congestion, weather conditions, or
other factors that may affect safety while driving.

to the use of your Garmin unit.
Important Information
Map Data Information: One of the goals of
Garmin is to provide customers with the most complete
and accurate cartography that is available to us at a
reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental
and private data sources, which we identify in product
literature and copyright messages displayed to the
consumer. Virtually all data sources contain some
inaccurate or incomplete data. In some countries,
complete and accurate map information is either not
available or is prohibitively expensive.
